Steven seemed to be stuck in the neck. He stopped complaining, took a deep breath, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and thought about how he would have to show off to that student in front of Liang Conglin later. He restored his usual reserved demeanor as a master, turned around and walked in front: "Let's go in together."
Elena's cell phone rang. She took out her cell phone and looked at the caller ID. She stopped and said to the person walking in front of her, "Teacher, please go in first. I'll take a call."
Steven looked back and saw that her phone was on. He didn't say anything. He just gave her a few instructions and went in first.
There are also many media reporters in the conference hall.
As one of the representatives of famous overseas universities, he really cannot leave for too long, otherwise he will not only lose face for himself, but also for the overseas community.
Steven ignored Elena and went in first.
…
Outside.
Elena found an empty corner and answered the phone.
"What's wrong? Didn't I tell you not to call me?" She was in a bad mood and spoke in a bad tone.
The person on the other end of the phone was anxious and said, "Miss, our business has been in trouble. Several of our branches have been vandalized, and our stock company has also run into problems. Someone has exposed some of our illegal operations, and the FBI has already started investigating."
"?"
Elena didn't react to his words for a long time, and was slow to respond: "What?"
The person on the other end of the phone tried his best to calm down and repeated what he had said before, describing in detail what difficult problems he had encountered.
Elena heard it clearly this time, and a look of frustration and dejection rarely appeared on her beautiful and proud face: "What happened? Who did it?!"
She has always been ambitious and unwilling to be led by the nose.
Ever since she left the island and started studying outside, she has been building up her own power with the help of her connections and Moody.
The person on the other end of the phone was the professional manager she had found to help her manage her personal business. He had been doing a good job over the years and had made her personal business bigger and bigger.
The halls and companies she owns are enough to support her success on the island in recent years, and are also one of the reasons why she has more and more say in the Irene family.
How could everything go wrong overnight
Moreover, the other party had precisely attacked several of her most important companies and bases. It had to be said that no matter how calm and rational Elena was, she was annoyed by this sudden news.
"Is it...F Continent?" Her first reaction was Qiao Nian.
Because Qiao Nian had just threatened her.
She suspected that Qiao Nian was retaliating against her without investigating.
But Elena vaguely felt that it was unlikely. Even if Qiao Nian wanted to retaliate against her, it was impossible for him to know her background so clearly.
After all, these companies are Elena's private businesses that she has kept secret from everyone. The people in the Elena family only know that she has her own power outside, but they don't know what they are specifically.
Does Qiao Nian have this ability
Just when she was suspicious, the person on the other end of the phone said with certainty: "It's not F Continent, it's a bit like... like..."
"explain!"
Elena was extremely angry this time and just wanted to find out who did it immediately.
I heard the person on the other end of the phone hesitating: "It looks a bit like the work of the island."
"…" Elena paused for breath, almost suffocating. She couldn't believe her ears, and asked in a vague voice, "Where do you say it looks like?"
“On the island.”
"… "
Elena felt that her anger was about to burst out, but then she was silenced.
